Research's IaaC - Vertical Building @ Rome

The purpose of this project in Rome is to find possible solutions for some of the problems that affect the city nowadys. In order to answer to the needs of the new social classes (couples, workers, singles... ) and to solve the problem of the marginality of the partecipation of the city council in term of quality and quantity of housing, the vertical building has to be able to adapt itself to the different necessity and it has to be easily transformed. The building grows, starting from the earliest core to the second second surface which is also the connection point between the first building and the landscape. This second adaptive skin-facade changes its aspect when the internal condition and external condition change. It is at the same time an internal \\"habitat\\" and an external environment. An inflatable surface define its different light permeability. It is hold by a triangulated structure made up of carbon fiber. Carbon fiber are 17 time more sustainable because one quarter of the steel has five times the strenght of steel. By Alfonso Pezzi
